Unveiling the Truth: A Blueprint for Success

Simplicity is synonymous with originality. Anything you can’t grasp in simple terms becomes a challenge in logical terms. Here lies the secret: if you’re not first, you are last. Unfortunately, life doesn’t provide for average living; it’s a binary reality where you’re either at the top or at the bottom. In the school of success, failure is acknowledged, but there is no room for being average.…

Eurylochus, a proper, gods fearing greek soldier: Don't forget how dangerous the gods are! Odysseus, who's been besties with Athena since he was like twelve, just had a whole song of arguing with her with zero fear of being smote, and gets personal warning visions from Zeus:(b･▽･)b Will do good buddy!

WILLIAMS RACING and the power of friendship trauma bonding

[tragicblondie]

thinking about the ending of dragon age 2 as a mage hawke who sided with the mages at the end of the fifth blight, the warden defeats the archdemon and saves ferelden. they are paraded through denerim to the sounds of cheering crowds. if they don't survive, their memory lives on in a tale of great heroism and sacrifice for years to come. the inquisitor celebrates at skyhold with the rest of their companions after they beat corypheus, the threat finally ended, the inquisition a success.

but not hawke. you can fight with everything you have to support the mages, but there is no grand fanfare when it is over. the villain succumbs to corruption and dies unceremoniously - you don’t even get the satisfaction of striking the killing blow. you can’t get a round at the hanged man to celebrate. it’s time to go. you and your friends can never sit around your table at the hanged man again. you can’t be seen here when the templars come to clean up the mess. nothing will be the same. you have given seven years of your life trying to hold kirkwall together, accepted your accolades and played the part of champion, and you watch it fall apart anyway. and how much of that is your fault? this city has been stained in your blood since before you could remember, since before the blood was your own.

you lost your sister when you lost your first home. even so, you tried to live by the advice you gave fenris - when you stop running, you build a life. the estate that you clawed your family back into stands looming and empty. it is the last place you saw your mother alive, and you still can't bear to touch her things, and you will never even see her room again. bodahn and sandal are making preparations to leave for orlais, orana will find other work with the skills she's learned, and the house will remain, a hollow testament to your family's legacy. gamlen will hear only the stories. your brother fought by your side when it mattered, despite everything. even so, he will stay behind, and you might never see him again.

no, there is no time for a celebration. instead you get a cautious acknowledgement from the templars, a tense goodbye, and then you can never go home again. for the second time. you thought you could build a life, and you tried. you held on as long as you could, you made friends, you fell in love, you clung to the last vestiges of your family, but most of them will be forced to leave your side anyway. you won, but even that wasn't enough.

BUILD IT—106

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. If results were easy, everybody would be successful. Not everyone may achieve success, but everyone possesses the seed of success within them, requiring dedication, diligence, devotion, determination, and decision. Let me clarify: nothing in life is designed to function solely through wishful thinking, but everything is meant to operate under the grace…

WHO IS THE ELF?! I NEED TO KNOW MORE

His name is Dondras! He was raised in A Cult. In fact, THE cult. He was planted at the start of the game to make sure Uriel’s murder went through and to retrieve the Amulet of Kings, but the old man really throws him for a loop talking about prophecy and “the sun’s companion” and shit. Dondras thinks he’s just a senile old man for the first third of the game. But also his life is a comedy of errors and he ends up being involved with saving the world after all.
